We are seeking to appoint a committed and dynamic Learning Mentor who has relevant qualifications and proven experience of working with young people and emotional and behaviour issues. The successful candidate will be required to provide support and guidance to young people to help them overcome social, emotional and behavioural issues, ensuring that individual pupils engage more effectively in learning and participating in the life of the school.
Candidates will have the ability to identify and target those pupils at risk of disaffection and help them identify and address barriers to learning. Mentoring will take place one to one or in small groups so you will have excellent interpersonal, organisational and communication skills.
We pride ourselves on high expectations, a commitment to ensuring pupil progress and high-quality teaching and learning provision for all. You will share these values and be able to enthuse and motivate our pupils to engage fully with school life. You will be ambitious and will embrace being part of moving our School forward.
We can offer you fantastic, eager children and supportive parents. Our dynamic and friendly staff are passionate about raising standards and aspirations for all children.
Our school is well resourced and has a supportive and reflective Senior Leadership Team, Governing Body and Multi Academy Trust.
A comprehensive programme of CPD supports colleagues at all career stages; through the Multi-Academy Trust we provide excellent career opportunities for our staff. Colleagues seeking a varied, challenging and rewarding career can find this in the Wade Deacon family.
